Let's discuss your project
Bespoke: size, colour, finish
Most taps are symmetrical because nobody questioned it. Opus, drawn for Cea Design by the Belgian architect Bruno Erpicum, questions it: the spouts are installed in line with the handles and aligned to the lower edge of the control, giving the collection a deliberately asymmetric appearance. It is a composition rule rather than a flourish — once you notice it, you recognise Opus across an entire bathroom.
The rest of the project follows the same rigour. Two cylinders do all the work: a 60 mm (2.36 in) grip governs the temperature, an 18 mm (0.71 in) line carries the water. No rosettes, no joystick, one material — AISI 316L stainless steel, satin or polished, with Black Diamond, Bronze, Copper and Light Gold as special finishes. Progressive, dual-handle and thermostatic versions cover washbasin, shower, bath and remote controls, down to the matching accessories.
La Mercanti supplies Opus internationally and helps architects and private clients turn that composition rule into an ordered list — configurations, finishes and quantities checked on the drawings.
